Review

This under-seen and under-appreciated series managed to get a full season in on network TV eventually, but it took the best part of ten months for all seventeen episodes to air, what with continual changes to the schedule. Robert Urich stars as a globetrotting reporter who decides to give up the big city when his wife dies. He duly packs up the kids and moves to small town Wisconsin, where he writes a column in the local rag. Despite the requisite love interest (Carol Kane) appearing on the scene, the kids don't appear to dig Wisconsin, and the old boss (Jeffrey Tambor) is always trying to get our boy to come back to work in the big smoke. All in all, this Emmy nominated series was a nice, pleasant waft of country air that was never given the chance it truly deserved.
